Summary: As a district in Program Improvement, we are required to annually spend 10% of Title I funds on professional development (PD). The PD must meet a variety of criteria including alignment with the district’s Local Education Agency Plan Addendum (LEA Plan Addendum). Mt. Diablo’s LEA Plan Addendum identifies the need to provide district wide professional development for administrators, coaches, and teachers focusing on the instructional program, high quality first instruction, collaboration, and the development of a district wide intervention plan with a focus on response to intervention. (LEA Plan Addendum D.4.11, D.4.1.2, D.5.1.1, D.5.3.1, D.6.1.1, D.8.1.2).
